What are common street names for alcohol?
Like any other commercial beverage, alcohol is available in countless types and varieties. It’s only fitting that alcohol has just as many street names. Whether it be beer, wine, gin or whiskey, it’s likely that on the street people call it by another, more familiar, name. Some of these street names include: booze, brew, hooch, and hard stuff.
There are some types of alcohol that are more common on the streets than in stores. For example, Jello Shots are gelatin laced with alcohol. Everclear is a drink with very high amounts of alcohol. It’s popular for Everclear to be injected into a whole watermelon and then dished out.
Some of the street names can be a bit confusing. Alcoholic beverages can sometimes be called juice, sauce or cold one. It would be easy to make a mistake with names like that. An awareness of alcohol’s street names is helpful in avoiding awkward situations. When someone offers you a “cold one”, you’ll know they’re offering you alcohol and not a glass of milk. Familiarity with these names will empower you to make informed decisions.
